Chapter 518 Face The Reality
Chapter 518 Face The Reality
Having no intention of hugging Joseph back, Daisy dropped her hands on her sides.
Slowly, Daisy turned around to face him. "Joseph, please respect me. I have nothing to do with you now. I hope you can understand the reality that we have divorced."
For a moment, Joseph fell silent and then he nodded. "Yes, I know. Well, let's have breakfast."
Finally, Joseph let go of Daisy and walked into the dining room first.
"I don't have much time, so I just cooked beef noodles. There's no restaurant that sells breakfast nearby so just eat it even if you don't like it. If you're still hungry then ask your servants to cook for you once you get home." Then she pushed the noodles in front of Joseph.
Thinking that Joseph disliked her, Daisy didn't expect he would eat the food she prepared. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
She used to cook for Joseph in different ways, but he didn't like it, not to mention the simplest beef noodles now.
To Daisy's surprise, Joseph lowered his head and ate up the beef noodles in a huff.
"Joseph, eat slowly. No one is going to take it away from you."
A few minutes later, Joseph pushed the empty bowl in front of Daisy. "I'm not full yet. One more bowl."
"You... Why do you eat so much?" Seeing him like this, Daisy felt something unexplainable deep within her, but it was something she would only keep to herself. Her eyes settled on him in disbelief.
As far as Daisy knew, Joseph didn't eat much. In the past, he couldn't finish this bowl of noodles.
This man behaved strangely today.
"Not much. I'm not full yet. What? If you don't like me eating too much, I won't eat anymore," Joseph said mournfully.
"No, I'll get you another bowl." Holding the empty bowl in her hand, Daisy stood up and thought to herself, 'Joseph is so strange today. His tone and attitude towards me have changed so much that I can't accept it.
Does he really become a fool because of too much stress?'
What Daisy didn't know was that except drinking, Joseph hadn't eaten much these days. The anger made it impossible for him to eat. All he did was drink alcohol every day, making his life more miserable.
That was why Joseph remembered how good Daisy was in the past and realized what a jerk he was then.
Staring at Daisy's back, Joseph felt something warm in his heart. While Daisy was busy preparing the noodles, he said, "Daisy, don't drive me away, okay?"
"We have divorced. You can't live in my house. It is absurd. Joseph, marriage is not a game. We just missed it. When a thing is done, it's done. There is no turning back in our lives!" The way Joseph made it sound so easy made her angry. "Hurry up. I'm going to the film crew."
"I want to go with you!" As he spoke, he continued eating. "I'll follow you wherever you go."
What he said left Daisy speechless.
They had known each other for so many years, yet Joseph barely looked at her. What was he doing now?
Why was he being clingy to her?
If he had known what would happen today, there was no way he would do all those awful things to her before.
Even if he wanted to live with her now, it was already too late. Daisy had grown tired of him.
How was that possible, right?
Ignoring Joseph, Daisy lowered her head to eat. After breakfast, she washed the dishes and went upstairs to fix herself before going to the crew.
Once she was done, she took the script and drove out. Joseph was like a stalker following her. People who didn't know Joseph would think that he was Daisy's assistant.
Daisy had been an actress for so many years, but she had never hired an assistant. She took care of everything by herself. Of course, Joseph had never asked her about it.
Now... It was uncomfortable to have Joseph who kept following her around.
The movie was called, "Snow Love", a beautiful yet heartbreaking story. Wherein the heroine was diagnosed with leukemia, but the hero never gave up on her. He was there to help her fight against her illness.
For today's shoot, Daisy would have to do a kissing scene with the actor who played hero.
All his life, Joseph had been surrounded by countless movie stars. Moreover, he had done something with them. But seeing Daisy kiss another man felt like his heart was being squeezed.
So Joseph rushed in front and shouted, "We can't shoot this scene. Find a substitute!"
Everyone in the crew was stunned. This request was overbearing.
"Who are you... Oh, Mr. Fu, right? Daisy is our heroine, Snow. This kissing scene is simple. She doesn't need to fight, so we don't have any substitute for this..."
Before the director could even finish his words, Joseph interrupted, "No way. If you don't find a substitute, you can terminate Daisy's contract or... I'll act as the hero!" It could be seen that Joseph was being possessive.
"Joseph, acting is my job. Don't make a scene, okay?" It was not easy for Daisy to get the role of the heroine. She didn't want to be ruined by Joseph. In the entertainment circle, opportunities were more important than efforts.
Therefore, Daisy attached great importance to this opportunity.
"Make a scene? I just want to play the leading actor. Otherwise, there's no more shooting!" Joseph said overbearingly.
"How unreasonable you are! Joseph, you are hopeless and inexplicable!" Daisy said with hatred.
With a sad face, the director said helplessly, "Mr. Fu, we have signed the contract with the leading actor. Now that you suddenly appear, it's difficult for us to deal with it. I will definitely invite you to play the leading actor in the next play. What do you think?"
"No, I can give you two choices. The first is to terminate the contract with Daisy, and the second is to terminate the contract with the leading actor. It's up to you." Joseph put forward his condition.
"Joseph, you have hurt me for so many years. Isn't it enough? I have nothing to do with you now, let alone owe you anything. Can you let me go?" Not wanting to terminate the contract, Daisy stared at Joseph angrily.
Seeing the tears in her eyes, Joseph immediately said, "Yes, you can't terminate the contract with Daisy. Then you have only one way left, which is, to terminate the leading man's contract. As for the liquidated damages, I will pay!"
When the director surveyed Joseph up and down, he unconsciously straightened his back.
"Mr. Fu... You are absolutely good-looking, but you are full of rage. If you want to play the leading actor, you have to restrain your temper."
The director didn't want to offend the young master of the Fu family. Besides, it was also an opportunity for him to get close to the Fu family. He could make a great deal of money by making TS Group invest in his play.
Another thing was that Joseph was in the limelight now. He had occupied the hot search in the past few days, and the heat was not down yet. It was exactly what an actor needed.
"I can restrain myself. Acting needs to look realistic, right? Don't worry, director. In order to play the role well, I've decided to live with the heroine for a period of time. I promise to make this movie famous!" Pride was evident in his voice as Joseph declared this.
By just imagining that she would need to sleep and eat with Joseph every day, Daisy felt uncomfortable so she immediately protested. "No way!"
'What on earth does this man want to do?
Now that he was done playing with all the women in the world, he wants me back?
Did he ask me how I feel?
How could Joseph be so unreasonable?'
"Oh, Daisy, they say that actors and actresses can sacrifice everything for the sake of acting. Why can't you sacrifice just a little? I'll have a hard time if you keep acting like that," the director persuaded Daisy with a cold face.
